Halloween HeartBreak WORLD OF FANTASY "Strange Wife of Henry Johnson!"

Welcome to our final Countdown to Halloween 2024 tale...

...as we look at the never-reprinted tale behind this incredibly-misleading (but atmospheric), never-reprinted Bill Everett cover!
That means no one has seen this story from Atlas' World of Fantasy #4 (1956)...except you...for almost seven decades!
So she's not a witch...but an alien!
I have the feeling the cover was done before the Comics Code Authority began its' stranglehold on what was left of the comic book industry, but frugal editor Stan Lee didn't want it to go to waste, so he had an unknown writer along with artist John Forte take the basic plot and drop the supernatural element, replacing it with sci-fi!
It's still a nice tale of "love conquers all", eh?

Halloween HeartBreak MISTER MYSTERY "All or Nothing at All!"

Mister Mystery was the host of his own self-titled horror anthology.
Though he looked like a jovial stage magician in a mask, his stories easily matched those of the Crypt Keeper and other ghoulish comics hosts..as you shall see!
For such an innocent-looking guy, Mister Mystery tells a nasty story, aided by illustrator Tom Feelings and an unknown author in this story from Stanley Morse's Mister Mystery #14, (1953)!

Halloween HeartBreak YOAKE NO VAMPIRE Part 3

When Last We Left Louis and Lestat...

Louis continues the story of how Lestat transformed him from human to vampire, ending at the point where the duo returned to Louis' family plantation.
But the slaves are aware of the fact the duo are...undead...

The translators kept the integrity of the art by not flopping it to accommodate Western reading habits.
